ALC Recipe of the Month: Strawberry Cucumber Salad

ALC Recipe of the Month: Strawberry Cucumber Salad with Lemon Cream (From Epicurious)

INGREDIENTS:
4 cups quartered hulled strawberries (from 1 pound whole)
3 sliced Persian cucumbers
1 teaspoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon ground cardamom
A pinch of salt
1/2 cup crème fraîche
2 teaspoons sugar
1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
A pinch of salt
1/4 cup unsalted, roasted pistachios
A pinch of cayenne pepper
A pinch of salt

DIRECTIONS:
Step 1: Toss 4 cups quartered hulled strawberries (from 1 pound whole), 3 sliced Persian cucumbers, 1 teaspoon sugar, 1/2 teaspoon ground cardamom, and a pinch of salt in a medium bowl and let sit 10 minutes to allow sugar to dissolve and flavors to meld.
Step 2: Meanwhile, mix 1/2 cup crème fraîche, 2 teaspoons sugar, 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice, and a pinch of salt in a small bowl; set lemon cream aside.
Step 3: Pulse 1/4 cup unsalted, roasted pistachios, a pinch of cayenne pepper, and a pinch of salt in a food processor until nuts are just finely ground (do not overprocess or you'll end up with nut butter).
Step 4: Divide fruit salad among plates and spoon some of the reserved lemon cream over; sprinkle with ground seasoned pistachios.
* Lemon cream can be made 8 hours ahead. Cover and chill.

Mask Update!

We are excited to announce that as of June 11th, 2022, the Ontario Government has lifted the masking requirements for healthcare settings!

➡️What does this mean for me? 🤔

If you have an appointment with Dr. Angelica, ALC Chiropractor, you are NO longer required to wear a mask. That being said, we respect the choices of all members of our community. Should you wish to continue masking, you are welcome to!

➡️Will Dr. Angelica be wearing a mask 😷for my appointment?

Yes! She will continue to wear a mask for all therapy appointments, as she continues to work with many different demographics and sub-communities, some of which include immuno-compromised and the elderly. You may catch a glimpse of her smile 😁 if you see her attending one of our group classes!

➡️What should I do if I am not feeling well 🤒 for an appointment?

Although active screening of patients will no longer be required, we ask you self-monitor for no COVID-19 symptoms and do not attend the appointment if you have COVID-19 symptoms or live with someone who has tested positive for COVID-19. Please use the COVID-19 Self-Assessment for further guidance.

We look forward to seeing your SMILE around Active Life! Thank you for your patience and understanding throughout all changing protocols.

Active Lifer of the Month:
Kristen Caughill

Kristen has been a long time Active Lifer, regularly attending our Nooner and Push Your Pace classes. Her ability to balance a demanding job with consistent workouts is impressive.

Learning to find balance she is even exploring Pilates to help keep her healthy.
She enthusiastically participates in our Active Life challenges and recently attended our Women’s Community Cycling night.
